Don & Janet Guizzetti Burkina Faso Projects

Don and Janet's Projects

Sheltering Wings sponsors Missionaries Don and Janet Guizzetti who run our Community Center and Infant Nutrition Program in the West African nation of Burkina Faso. Don and Janet also intercede in the welfare for some very sick babies that need critical healthcare not provided locally.

We have begun work on the new community center, called Oasis of Hope, at which we will distribute formula to mothers who cannot produce milk or families of orphaned infants; provide training for women without spouses or incomes; and offer Bible-based training to women. Other services will be added as needs are identified.

Providing formula and services in obedience to the Great Commission to assure adequate nutrition for healthy cognitive and physical development in the first year of life for babies at risk from malnutrition. Provides formula for at risk babies.

Don and Janet’s 17-year old truck needs an engine overhaul and major suspension repairs. The air conditioner is beyond repair and the rear windows do not open. It is no longer economical to repair. They require a reliable truck for delivering baby formula, carrying construction and repair supplies, transporting missionaries, making clinic and pharmacy runs, and safely traveling throughout Burkina Faso to share Christ’s love. Cost of a Toyota Hi Lux with snorkel and winch is US $36,000.
